Florissant Summons of Joy . . .

Hits Streets Soon

A surprised resident receives a Summons of Joy last year.

The Fourth Annual Summons of Joy campaign will kicked off at the Florissant Police Department. Churches in the Florissant area donated $6,600 to this program which gives Officers with the Florissant Police Department the opportunity to give out 66 $100 Target gift cards to individuals/families that may need a little help this holiday season. This program helps the Police Department continue to increase positive relationships with the community that we serve.

The gift cards will be handed out randomly to unsuspecting recipients over the next few weeks. Officers who have had the opportunity to hand out these Summonses of Joy in the past have received many different kinds of reactions including hugs, tears of joy, disbelief, and many handshakes. “We are thrilled to be given this opportunity for the fourth consecutive year. The support from the Florissant Community is like no other. When there is a call to action from our local churches, the residents of our community really come together. This truly shows the compassion and the support of our community,” said Chief Lowery.
